For ECG, the Huawei Watch D relies on the TruSeen 5.0 technology, which uses eight circular photoelectric sensors and a pair of luminous sources with a curved glass sapphire lens and PVD-coated ECG electrodes to filter out interference and achieve accurate results.

The Watch D is advertised to detect Atherosclerosis, Arrhythmia, and Sleep Apnea risks. Huawei allows the smartwatch's users to quickly get online consultation from experts to help understand their health data.

Huawei says it partnered with 301 hospitals in China to test the accuracy and reliability of the Watch D, which has also been registered as a Class II medical device with China's food and drug administration.

The rest of the Huawei Watch D's highlights include a temperature sensor, multi-functional NFC, and IP68 dust and water resistance. Huawei hasn't revealed the Watch D's battery size but says it will offer up to seven days of endurance in a typical usage scenario.

As per GSM Arena, the Huawei Watch D price is CNY 2,988 and will go on sale in China starting December 25. There's no word on its availability in global markets.
